Notes:

David Solon Hall Chase Smith

For nearly thirty years Dr. Solon Smith, as he was called, was the leading physician and surgeon of Sutton, Mass.

He graduated from Yale Medical College, class of 1816. He was the eldest son of Dr. Nathan Smith, founder of Yale and Dartmouth medical schools. His thorough training and the prestige of his father's fame brought him also a large consultation practice at a distance from his home.

"He was distinguished as a naturalist, being intimately acquainted with animal nature, birds and reptiles, and, having made a special study of botany, could classify and give the medical properties of nearly all the plants of this country."

His historian, from whom we quote, said of him, "Like his father he was a great man but never became rich."

His home life was clouded by sorrow, for he outlived all five of his children, and his experiences, although at times full of romance, were also full of pathos.

In 1848 he removed to Providence, where, eleven years later, he died, aged sixty-four years.

Note: Married a second time to Mrs. Fanny Wood, on June 19,1851, & married a third time to Annie M White, on Dec 2,1855.

Notes:

Marvin Smith was a physician settled in practice in Westfield, MA. 

He was killed at Norwalk, with many other physicians, by the cars in which they were riding falling through an open bridge, as they were returning form a medical convention held at New York. The draw bridge had been withdrawn, and no signal was given to the cars and they ran off into the river.

A son of Dr. Marvin Smith, in 1873, occupied his grandfather's chair as Professor of Theory and Practice of Medicine at Yale College.
